Powderkeg Players
About the Business
Welcome to Powderkeg Players, located at 82 Phoenix Street, Sunshine North, Australia. As an established institution and a point of interest, we are thrilled to present our upcoming production from Friday 1 September 2023 to Sunday 10 September 2023 (UTC 10) at Dempster Park Hall.
Prepare to be entertained by the brilliant minds behind the original television series Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister, as they bring you the equally sharp and satirical 2010 stage version, written by Antony Jay & Jonathan Lynn. Directed by our esteemed life member, Alan Barrett, this production showcases the immense talent of Powderkeg's own actors.
The cast includes Stephen Andrews as Sir Humphrey Appleby, the cunning Cabinet Secretary, Robert Wightwick as Bernard Woolley, the loyal Principal Private Secretary, Gemma Francis as Claire Sutton, the astute Special Policy Advisor, and Warrick Smith as the charismatic Prime Minister. Together, they will take you on a journey through the political landscape of the United Kingdom.
Set in a time of crisis, where debt is spiraling and unemployment is on the rise, the fragile coalition cabinet, led by Prime Minister Jim Hacker, is on the brink of collapse. However, a glimmer of hope emerges in the form of a complex pipeline deal with the oil-rich country of Kumranistan, which could secure a multi-trillion pound loan for the government.
But as moral considerations clash with the economic future of the nation, political machinations, media manipulation, and even an appeal for divine intervention come into play. Prepare to be captivated by the witty dialogue, clever plot twists, and thought-provoking themes that this production has to offer.
Rehearsals have already begun, and we can't wait to share a laugh with you. Join us for an evening filled with political intrigue, sharp humor, and outstanding performances.
